The Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly Hon Martin Amaewhule has invited the nine commissioners who resigned their positions from the cabinet of Governor Sim Fubara for screening

This was contained in a statement by the Clerk of the Rivers State House of Assembly Emeka Amadi.

Part of the 8-point peace agenda signed by Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State and FCT Minister Nyesom Wike included the reappointment of the commissioners who resigned.

The statement reads “Public Announcement The Rivers State House of Assembly hereby invites the following Commissioner -nominees for screening and confirmation as Members of the Rivers State Executive Council.

7. ⁠Dr. George-Kelly D. Alabo FNIQS DSSRS

The move became necessary after the nominees resigned their positions as commissioners in the Fubara cabinet due to the political impasse between past governor of the state, Nyesom Wike and Sim Fubara.
